Carbon fibre quad centre exit rear diffuser

totti84 · 01-19-2015, 10:53 PM

Hi guys,

After heaps of research I have found someone who makes a similar Hartge style centre exit quad rear diffusers in carbon, without the centre fin (Hartge diffuser is discontinued).

These are made in Asia, previously sold on ebay, but no longer selling there.
These are the only photos available

It looks to be a replica of Boca Designs diffuser

I will be purchasing one very shortly, and was wondering if anyone in Sydney would be interested to save on postage?
These are made on demand, so if we get a few people interested it may be cheaper if we order together.

(I can't organise a group buy as the supplier is not a supporting vendor, please delete post if I have breached any forum rules)

Thanks
Steve

i remember Peak in Parramatta selling HARTGE stuff. I talked to them a while ago about a diffuser. Check them just incase as well.

totti84 · 01-20-2015, 02:49 AM

Regardless if Peak have the Hartge diffuser, it isn't carbon and it's about 4 times the price. Thanks for the heads up though

I'll be interested Steve if a gb will reduce cost, not just shipping expense.

Scooby2 · 01-21-2015, 07:18 AM

Wow that does look nice.
How much you expecting?

I have this diffuser, can confirm it is surprisingly good quality/fit.

Hartge no longer make their quad diffuser (discontinued), I checked with the Aus distributor as well as the US distributors in early 2014 and there were none available.

Thanks Knightelf! Your PM's and videos were the reason behind this search!

Interested, PM sent.

That design was also used by a european company called "Inside Performance" around 2009-2010. You might be able to find an example of that.

Its a quad version of the BMW Performance diffuser, a fair popular design. So it shouldn't be terribly difficult to locate.

totti84 · 01-27-2015, 03:15 PM

I am aware of Inside Performance, but it costs more than double even without shipping from Germany

I'm in for group buy to US

totti84 · 02-23-2015, 08:26 PM

I'm happy to pass on his details, but I won't be organising a group buy to the US sorry

versacevampire · 03-01-2015, 12:40 AM

where did you find this? I need to know..

totti84 · 03-31-2015, 06:47 PM

Last bump before I purchase, so if anyone in Sydney is interested in saving let me know ASAP.

SMB Mirrors · 04-01-2015, 09:02 AM

What shop is selling this? Will they ship to us?

PermanentCraving · 04-01-2015, 06:10 PM

Totti, I am very interested in seeing what the fitment is like, definitely post up a review when you get it!

totti84 · 04-01-2015, 06:16 PM

I'll be purchasing directly off Boca Designs as the original ebay vendor is too unreliable for my liking
